What I'm not liking about this is when I hit D key I would expect focus to toggle between Track View and MultiDock - just like it does when they are both in the main window. Instead it moves focus to Track View and never again back to MultiDock window when it's reopened.

"Minimize" makes it disappear to the Task Bar. Your screenshot shows it to be just that. The 3 view states are 1. Minimize (minus icon), 2. Restore/Maximize (floating or full view icon), 3. Close (X icon). Click either floating or full screen icon to "restore" it to the screen. You can also hit D key for same results. FWIW, some closing/opening routines don't seem to always work as expected. Shift+D does nothing in a 2 screen scenario for me either.

Welcome to the 1%ers club. Membership is free. I'm also constantly faced with CbB not Tx-ing MIDI to my outboard devices. It's an odd Stack Flow issue: odds are all stacked against me. 1. Flaky Windows 11 laptop - probably dropped in the warehouse before I bought it. 2. Bad internal USB connectivity 3. Working with old .wrk and X1 projects in CbB 4.Using old outboard synths 5. I'm a low level Slider - one who affects electronics negatively I did find a post from the old forum describing my issues, tho. http://forum.cakewalk.com/MIDI-Activity-icon-on-Windows-Taskbar-m3532498.aspx His remedy to shut off the MIDI monitor wasn't 100% for me but may help.

@JohnnyV Your video doesn't seem to address this specifically. It caught me a while back and was helped by forum members to fix it. It happens when one floats a view and disables floating, then maximizes it, then forgets he had done that. It also happens when one opens a pre-X series or pre-MultiDock project. A clue to the scenario is the top far right red padlock next to the view state buttons. There's no real way to figure it out without help. At least, I haven't found anything in the manual like the example I posted.

Glad it worked.

1. Click the top right middle Restore button - This will float the PRV 2. Click PRV window's top left piano key icon and select Dock in MultiDock - PRV is now in the MultiDock 3. Click PRV window's top right middle Maximize button - View should be restored to normal

Probably your WORKSPACE - currently set to "Basic". Set it to "None" or drag the PRV window back to the Multidock and let go of the mouse when it turns blue - then save the current Workspace.

When I select several MIDI tracks and hold Ctrl while changing the Input of one of them, only 1 or 2 of the track inputs actually change. Initially it doesn't work but after changing each selected track individually it will work the next time I do it.

99% of the time it isn't a plugin - for me. CbB can "crash" (if "crash" means any kind of upset) at will... new empty project, no plugins, no nuthin', CbB will either close on it's own or refuse to reopen when manually closed. It absolutely loves hanging out in Background Processes (where it doesn't belong) when closed improperly, requiring one to either log out of Windows or reboot the system. In this case it seems like a breakdown in communication with host hardware/software.... or something USB related.

Then Windows Update comes along and decides to reset the default to my interface w/o me knowing and I'm resetting things that should be left alone. ?

Confirmed here. Intended or not, I never noticed this before because I always select the input source BEFORE arming the track, which seems to override the aforementioned behavior. I'm not a fan of "automatic selection" from any source.

Yeah, along with other issues, quite often I have to reboot umpteen times to get CbB to send MIDI out to my synth. I've noticed the Taskbar MIDI monitor will freeze up occasionally. I think the system USB is to blame for most these connection issues.

Sign-in link is missing on my phone unless I rotate it landscape. Top links bar is missing either way. Once signed in there's no way to sign out. EDIT: Switching to Desktop site solves those issues. 1. Go to 3 dots at top far right 2. Select Desktop site 3. All links appear

Go to page 806 & 811 of the reference guide PDF for the links above. Section begins on page 799. Link to PDF is at the top of this page at Cakewalk by BandLab > Reference Guide PDF. It will open in your browser where you can also down load it.

1. Grab bottom of Time Ruler with mouse 2. Stretch Time Ruler down 3. Time Ruler digits get bigger

Yes. If the name is too long to display, CbB abbreviates it to it's own liking making it sometimes "garbled" and not very useful. Track names are meant to be simple labels for quick reference. Perhaps allowing them to expand to 2 lines before the abbreviation affect would be nice.

Interesting. Others have reported it too. It's not 100% of the time but it can even happen when there's no notes being played.

Maybe it just don't like me. Do yours " thump" when stopping? Mine always have.

Maybe not the best option while editing or moving them, tho. ?

@msmcleod 1. Check 2. Check The test project only has AS synth loaded. There's no CC's or MIDI data at the beginning of the bass track, but the instant I hit PLAY it triggers an edit. Odd but apparently normal for AS plugins. Few if any other synths with CC's triggers an edit.

links are broken ATM.

From the Menu: Insert > Soft Synth... > Cakewalk > SI-Drum Kit ???

No automation. If I MUTE the synth, or freeze it, it won't do it. A new project with empty MIDI track won't do it until project is played and transport is stopped manually. Stopping causes Ample instruments to "thump" for some reason, but I use the free versions. Ample settings are the same for both projects. Most other plugins don't behave this way.

I thought I was just me. My current project seems to do the same thing but only by a few milisec. After hours of tightening up several audio clips, others would drift. Then I'd tighten them. The next day another track would go out of sync. Almost like playing the project repeatedly or splitting clips is causing it. Never had this happen before.... maybe on one other project recently, but that's it.
